Amazing connectivity

[birdflyinghigh]

I just wanted to share this documentary about animal communication:

It just reaffirms to me how everything in this universe has a connection. What does everyone else think?

I agree with you OP. Interesting documentary. Was quite emotional at the beginning when she was explaining how it can be upsetting for her feeling the animals pain. We are getting so disconnected from nature. Thank you for posting this.

No problem, vitalogy. I was crying with joy, though, at the end, with the newly named 'Spirit' formerly known as 'Diablo'. Such a magnificent cat!

That's it. The guy at the end certainly changed his mind didn't he.

I can't remember if I was reading or watching a documentary about the Native Americans in WW2, the army wanted to use them for their tracking skills. The men had long hair and of course the army wanted them with short back and sides. They either couldn't track or the ability was badly effected. It said the hair can be an extension of the nervous system. A needed connection. I'm all for long hair and beards me

Wow, that is interesting! I'm growing mine again after losing it all the other year from chemo. I always liked having long hair. An excuse not to keep the ole body hair too non existent either. Yay!

I have saved it to watch later.

Your post reminded me of some recent research showing that babies and their mothers share brain wavelengths. I'll try and find it. It makes me wonder about connectivity and unseen ways of communicating.

Yes birdflyinghigh Me to! I don't like getting my hair cut either, I do, but have the least amount possible off. I feel like Samson

Hope you are all through your troubles.

Another thing I watched was about a women, she was in a forest. Talking about imagining yourself in a golden bubble, also a tree being in a golden bubble. Then imagine merging the two bubbles. I've yet to have a go becoming one with nature was the aim.

I'll have to look both those things up, I think. The hair affecting tracking abilities and the mother / babies sharing brain wavelengths. It does make me wonder about unseen ways of communicating too, pickle and the general resonance we could have on the environment. I mean the implications of my belief that everything in the environment might acknowledge us in some way and we might perceive that acknowledgment in some way would explain all sorts of what some people describe as supernatural.

Thank you for your well wishes, vitalogy, they mean a lot. I love thinking about trees. Amazing beings. Some of them are so old. And the way they can protect other highly regarded specimens of their species shows to me their sentience. They will keep certain other trees alive when they have lost their ability to sustain life themselves. I have also read some research showing that they can recognise colour.

There are about 7,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 atoms in your body.

All are billions of years old.

At the deepest level YOU are the universe in human form. So connecting to other forms shouldn't be an issue.

That's one way of looking at it, noego. It's the consciousness and intelligence that amazes me, though. And potentially being able to share experiences with another species and find out how they view the world first hand. I was particularly interested when I watched a series of documentaries about apes learning sign language and communicating with it, for example.

I’m fascinated by trees too. They’ve got their very own Tree Mumsnet underground, communicating via their roots with fungi supplying the cables between them. They can warn each other of dangers and even send food parcels to their seedlings via their ‘Internet’. A forest is a cooperative community and if too many of the wise parent trees are chopped down, the whole forest is in danger of dying off.

Before I drift off to sleep - with curtains open - I find myself looking out at a large tree which quite often has a pigeon nestled in it. I like to think of the tree and the pigeon as my neighbours - though I stop short of giving them Christmas cards, that being reserved for my human neighbours who care more about that sort of thing!
